That is actually fitting in to the standard UI practices in the application, not an insult, I am more direct with those. http://ayende.com/2843/handling-javascript-localization-in-mono-rail#comment5http://ayende.com/2843/handling-javascript-localization-in-mono-rail#comment5Mon, 08 Oct 2007 18:38:21 GMTIts 2007, your users deserve a higher level of usability than the obnoxious alert dialog. For all the time spent coming up with beautiful APIs you should round out all those amazing dev skills. http://clientside.cnet.com/code-snippets/event-scripting/confirmer-widget/ With a longer delay and a better color choice you have yourself a big improvement. http://ayende.com/2843/handling-javascript-localization-in-mono-rail#comment4http://ayende.com/2843/handling-javascript-localization-in-mono-rail#comment4Mon, 08 Oct 2007 18:09:18 GMTclever idea! http://ayende.com/2843/handling-javascript-localization-in-mono-rail#comment3http://ayende.com/2843/handling-javascript-localization-in-mono-rail#comment3Mon, 08 Oct 2007 02:49:37 GMTYou get a null object if you mistype something, that about it. I know that you did a lot of stuff with JS and strong typing, but I don't see the need for those in many many cases. Debugging JS is very easy, usually requiring merely that I would be able to run the JS in FireBug. Debugging JS in IE is to be avoided. http://ayende.com/2843/handling-javascript-localization-in-mono-rail#comment2http://ayende.com/2843/handling-javascript-localization-in-mono-rail#comment2Sun, 07 Oct 2007 19:28:41 GMTThe horrer. It's not strongly typed! it's evil! This is string based reference - the anti christ! Seriously, anything gained in "easy globalzation" is lost in "oops, I changed the name of this file/group/field and everything compiled OK". Any managed code that's compiled to Javascript should be as strongly typed as possiable as javascript is far harder to debug then managed code. http://ayende.com/2843/handling-javascript-localization-in-mono-rail#comment1http://ayende.com/2843/handling-javascript-localization-in-mono-rail#comment1Sun, 07 Oct 2007 19:17:21 GMT
